Card Aging

Card aging makes neglected todos visibly age, so the items you've been putting off stand out from the ones you're actively working on. It's off by default and can be turned on per list.

Turning it on

Open the list settings and find the Aging row. Choose how long it takes a todo to fully age: 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, or 1 year. The preview updates live so you can see the effect before saving.

Aging styles

Once aging is on, an Aging style row appears:

Style Effect
Fade Todos gradually fade the longer they go untouched
Ancient scroll Todos deteriorate like old paper — edges tear away, cards tilt slightly, and cracks appear as they get older
Both Fading and deterioration combined

Every todo tears in its own unique pattern, so an aged list looks naturally weathered rather than uniform.

How todos stay fresh

  • A todo's age is measured from the last time its text was edited — renaming a todo makes it look brand new again
  • Completed todos never age
  • Checking a todo off and reinstating it does not reset its age

Where it applies

Aging is a per-list setting, like color palettes and color modes, and it works with every color mode. People viewing the list through a public share link see the aging effect too.
